I'm Glad My Mom Died
A heartbreaking and hilarious memoir by iCarly and Sam & Cat star Jennette McCurdy about her struggles as a former child actor—including eating disorders, addiction, and a complicated relationship with her overbearing mother—and how she retook control of her life.
Jennette McCurdy was six years old when she had her first acting audition. Her mother’s dream was for her only daughter to become a star, and Jennette would do anything to make her mother happy. So she went along with what Mom called “calorie restriction,” eating little and weighing herself five times a day. She endured extensive at-home makeovers while Mom chided, “Your eyelashes are invisible, okay? You think Dakota Fanning doesn’t tint hers?” She was even showered by Mom until age sixteen while sharing her diaries, email, and all her income.
In I’m Glad My Mom Died, Jennette recounts all this in unflinching detail—just as she chronicles what happens when the dream finally comes true. Cast in a new Nickelodeon series called iCarly, she is thrust into fame. Though Mom is ecstatic, emailing fan club moderators and getting on a first-name basis with the paparazzi (“Hi Gale!”), Jennette is riddled with anxiety, shame, and self-loathing, which manifest into eating disorders, addiction, and a series of unhealthy relationships. These issues only get worse when, soon after taking the lead in the iCarly spinoff Sam & Cat alongside Ariana Grande, her mother dies of cancer. Finally, after discovering therapy and quitting acting, Jennette embarks on recovery and decides for the first time in her life what she really wants.
Told with refreshing candor and dark humor, I’m Glad My Mom Died is an inspiring story of resilience, independence, and the joy of shampooing your own hair.

Spasiteľ Duny
Román o tom, aká je cena víťazstva... a cena vojny.
Pokračovanie slávneho románu Duna je viac ako fantasy, viac ako sci-fi: jedinečne výstižná analýza moci a jej dôsledkov pre jednotlivca.
Dvanásť rokov po tom, čo pokoril Harkonnenovcov, vládne Paul Atreides ako imperátor celému známemu vesmíru. No jeho víťazstvo má obrovské následky. Rozpútal vojnu, v ktorej zahynuli miliardy ľudí, a hoci sa mu to krviprelievanie protiví, nedokáže ho zastaviť. Dokáže aspoň zachrániť seba a svojich milovaných?
Spasiteľ Duny je pokračovanie príbehu Paula Atreidesa, známeho a obávaného pod menom MuadʼDib, ktorý vo svojich rukách sústredil väčšiu moc, než je pre smrteľníka zdravé.
Fanatickí Fremeni ho uctievajú ako božstvo, ale veľkorody, ktoré pri svojom nástupe na trón porazil, ho nenávidia. Teraz musí čeliť sprisahaniu z najbližších kruhov. V ohrození je všetko: jeho potomkovia, jeho láska, jeho budúcnosť. A spolu s tým aj budúcnosť celého vesmíru.

The Fragile Absolute
One of the signal features of our era is the re-emergence of the 'sacred' in all its different guises, from New Age paganism to the emerging religious sensitivity within cultural and political theory. The wager of Zizek's The Fragile Absolute - published here with a new preface by the author - is that Christianity and Marxism can fight together against the contemporary onslought of vapid spiritualism. The revolutionary core of the Christian legacy is too precious to be left to the fundamentalists.

Genetics
We can see the fruits of genetics all around us. Just look at your siblings, parents, grandparents, or other relatives. You will always find some shared feature, which is typical for the given family and which has been inherited for many generations. Be it the colour of the eyes, the shape of the ears, or the thumbs.
But where does genetics come from? Where lies the essence of all these phenomena? Why, in our cells – or more precisely, in our genes.
This comics will guide you through the fascinating world hidden away in the nuclei of our cells. A world that keeps going day and night, making sure that our whole body works the way it’s supposed to. Read about the discoveries of scientists that have brought us insulin to treat diabetes, or DNA multiplication for medical and forensic purposes. GENETICS, the science built on the 19th-century foundations of Gregor Mendel, is waiting to be discovered by YOU!

Prosperity
What is business for? Day one of a business course will tell you: it is to maximise shareholder profit. This single idea pervades all our thinking and teaching about business around the world but it is fundamentally wrong, Colin Mayer argues. It has had disastrous and damaging consequences for our economies, environment, politics, and societies.
In this urgent call for reform, Prosperity challenges the fundamentals of business thinking. It sets out a comprehensive new agenda for establishing the corporation as a unique and powerful force for promoting economic and social wellbeing in its fullest sense - for customers and communities, today and in the future.
First Professor and former Dean of the Said Business School in Oxford, Mayer is a leading figure in the global discussion about the purpose and role of the corporation. In Prosperity, he presents a radical and carefully considered prescription for corporations, their ownership, governance, finance, and regulation. Drawing together insights from business, law, economics, science, philosophy, and history, he shows how the corporation can realize its full potential to contribute to
economic and social wellbeing of the many, not just the few.
Prosperity tells us not only how to create and run successful businesses but also how policy can get us there and fix our broken system.

Emily Wilde's Encyclopaedia of Faeries
Enter the world of the hidden folk - and discover the most whimsical, enchanting and heart-warming tale you'll read this year, featuring the intrepid Emily Wilde...
Emily Wilde is good at many things: she is the foremost expert on the study of faeries; she is a genius scholar and a meticulous researcher who is writing the world's first encylopaedia of faerie lore. But Emily Wilde is not good at people
So when she arrives in the hardscrabble village of Hrafnsvik, Emily has no intention of befriending the gruff townsfolk. Nor does she care to spend time with another new arrival: her dashing and insufferably handsome academic rival Wendell Bambleby
But as Emily gets closer to uncovering the secrets of the Hidden Ones - the most elusive of all faeries - she also finds herself on the trail of another mystery: who is Wendell Bambleby, and what does he really want? To find the answer, she'll have to unlock the greatest mystery of all - her own heart.
Nekonečné nebe: Svět mezi tvými slovy
Delilah je čerstvě po rozchodu a nepřeje si nic jiného, než nechat svou minulost za hlubokým oceánem. Jenže v letadle z Bostonu do Londýna se nečekaně ocitne vedle šarmantního Jonaha Lowella, jehož nezvykle hluboký hlas ji zvláštním způsobem uhrane. Okamžitě mezi nimi vnímá jistou přitažlivost, ale drží se slibu, že si už nebude s muži začínat nic vážného. Dokud ovšem o pár týdnů později neuslyší v rádiu znovu Jonahův hlas, který ji fascinuje natolik, že začne litovat, že se s ním po náhodném setkání v letadle už nespojila…
Emocemi nabitý román plný barev, hlubokých písničkových textů a odhalených myšlenek. Bouřlivý a syrový příliv slov, mix pro zlomená a uzdravená srdce.
Další díl z trilogie Nad oblaky, s kterým se ocitnete vysoko i hluboko, nahoře i dole, daleko i blízko.
Krajinou Albrechta z Valdštejna
Po úspěchu publikací Krajinou prvních Přemyslovců a Krajinou Karla IV. přicházejí Otomar Dvořák a Josef Pepson Snětivý s osmou společnou knihou, nazvanou Krajinou Albrechta z Valdštejna.
Vévoda frýdlantský není výhradně kontroverzní – a už vůbec ne temná – postava naší historie. Jen málokteré české osobnosti se podařilo tak výrazně vstoupit na evropskou scénu a plody jeho záměrů dodnes okrašlují naši půvabnou zemi.
Autoři v této knize sledují jeho dramatický život z nečekaného úhlu: navštívili místa, která ho poznamenala nebo která naopak svým přičiněním poznamenal on sám. Otomar se zaměřil na historii měst, hradů a různých oblastí a jejich začlenění do Valdštejnova životopisu, zatímco Pepson propátrával jednotlivá místa s fotoaparátem v ruce a získával zajímavosti z pramenů, od místních kronikářů, muzejníků či jiných osob, aby mohl vyprávění doplnit o další souvislosti a pozoruhodné objekty v okolí.
Objevná výprava obdařila autory nesčetným množstvím poznatků a zážitků, z nichž nejzajímavější zpřístupňují čtenářům. Ti se tak mohou těšit nejen na plastický obraz Valdštejnova života a krajiny, ale také na velké množství obrázků a fotografií. Některé jsou unikátní, protože se autorské dvojici podařilo proniknout i na místa, kam je vstup prakticky nemožný.
